    SCIENCE IN THE PARK: GEOLOGY GEOLOGIC TIME SCALE ANALOGY PURPOSE: To show students the order of events and time periods in geologic time and the order of events and ages of the physiographic provinces in Virginia. BACKGROUND: Exact dates for events change as scientists explore geologic time. Dates vary from resource to resource and may not be the same as the dates that appear in your text book. Analogies for geologic time: a 24 hour clock or a yearly calendar. Have students or groups of students come up with their own original analogy. Before you assign this activity, you may want to try it, depending on the age of the student, level of the class, or time constraints, you may want to leave out the events that have a date of less than 1 million years. !

  • Mondo Quake in Pacific Northwest? by Leander Kahney
    Mondo Quake in Pacific Northwest? By Leander Kahney Story location: http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,61322,00.html 02:00 AM Nov. 24, 2003 PT Geologists have discovered evidence of a massively powerful earthquake zone beneath the Pacific Northwest just offshore from the Seattle area. They made the discovery by piecing together ancient accounts of a giant Japanese tsunami and a computer simulation of a huge temblor in the 17th century. Thought to be inactive, the earthquake zone runs 600 miles up the Pacific Coast from Northern California to southern British Columbia. It appears to be subject to monster quakes every 500 years. Known as the Cascadia subduction zone, the fault could threaten Vancouver, Portland and Seattle, which are full of buildings and high rises not built to withstand massive earthquakes. "This region has the potential for truly enormous earthquakes," said Brian Atwater of the U.S. Geological Survey, one of three authors of a new paper about a giant 17th-century quake along the fault. Published in the Journal of Geophysical Research-Solid Earth, the paper catalogs evidence for a magnitude-9 quake, which sent a tsunami across the Pacific to wreak havoc in Shogun-era Japan. The idea that the Cascadia region caused the tsunami isn't new; Japanese researchers first floated the idea in 1996. But the paper's authors present a solid case that a magnitude-9 quake on Tuesday, January 26, 1700, sent a 15-foot tsunami into Japan about 14 hours later. The paper, authored by Atwater, Kenji Satake of the Geological Survey of Japan and Kelin Wang of the Geological Survey of Canada, also presents a new computer model of the cataclysmic event.

Butowsky Historian, History Division National Park Service, Washington, DC The Geology National Historic Landmark Theme Study represents the second phase of the National Park Service's thematic study of the history of American science. Phase one of this study, Astronomy and Astrophysics: A National Historic Landmark Theme Study was completed in l989. Subsequent phases of the science theme study will include the disciplines of biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics and other related sciences. The Science Theme Study is being completed by the National Historic Landmarks Survey of the National Park Service in compliance with the requirements of the Historic Sites Act of l935. The Historic Sites Act established "a national policy to preserve for public use historic sites, buildings and objects of national significance for the inspiration and benefit of the American people." Under the terms of the Act, the service is required to survey, study, protect, preserve, maintain, or operate nationally significant historic buildings, sites & objects. The National Historic Landmarks Survey of the National Park Service is charged with the responsibility of identifying America's nationally significant historic property. The survey meets this obligation through a comprehensive process involving thematic study of the facets of American History. In recent years, the survey has completed National Historic Landmark theme studies on topics as diverse as the American space program, World War II in the Pacific, the US Constitution, recreation in the United States and architecture in the National Parks.

  • GEOL 02: Historical Geology Lab 7: Discovery of Plate Tectonics 1
    GEOL 02: Historical Geology Lab 7: Discovery of Plate Tectonics Name: ________________________________________ Date: _______________ (Adapted by Jason R. Patton from Dale Sawyer, Rice University and Richard Sedlock, San Jose State University) In the early 1960s, the emergence of the theory of plate tectonics started a revolution in the earth sciences. Subsequent verification and refinement of the theory has led scientists to recognize that, directly or indirectly, plate tectonics influences nearly all geologic processes. The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's outermost layer is fragmented into a dozen or more shell‐like plates that are moving relative to one another as they ride atop hotter underlying rock. In this lab, we will investigate the locations and types of plate boundaries around the globe by using several types of scientific data. We'll do this as a kind of role play exercise, so consider yourself transported back in time to the 1960's. The data types we'll use today are the same ones used by scientists in the late 1950’s and 1960’s to develop the theory of plate tectonics. These data continue to be collected to better understand how plate tectonics works. Today you will work in groups of "specialists" in one type of data and propose how to locate and classify different types of plate boundaries. Then, you will work with students who are specialists in the other data types to collaborate on an improved classification scheme and apply it to at least one major plate. Finally, you'll receive input from the instructor on plate boundary types and apply that to your final rendition of plate boundaries.
